Night Vision Devices

Night vision systems for bird watching are a reality. We have had superb views through a night vision scope
of shorebirds foraging well after it was dark. A lightweight night vision monocular device offers outstanding viewing
clarity in the darkest conditions and most are tripod adaptable.
Because so many animals are active at night, you might enjoy seeing their behaviors through your own
night vision scope or night vision binoculars.Most of our many night vision binoculars come
with infrared illuminators to enhance your wildlife viewing. Night vision devices come in many forms:
Night vision scope, night vision binoculars, night vision monocular even
night vision goggles. Owning your own night vision device can be useful for personal home security, too.
Unlike day use optics, most night vision devices use image intensifier tubes and project and magnify an image in a
viewfinder. Systems are available in Generation 1, 2, 3 and the latest Generation 4 technology.

Once the sun sets, a lot of outdoor enthusiasts pack up their equipment and call it a day. At Optics4Birding, we understand that
a lot of people wish to continue their activities after dark – that’s why we are a leader in providing our customers a range of the
best night vision scopes available to the consumer.

Night vision optics extend the hours one may enjoy outdoor activities like wildlife watching, hunting, and even security use around
the home or farm. As many birders know, many birds such as owls are nocturnal, and these digital night vision scopes allow birdwatchers
to observe those animals in their natural habitats well after the sun has gone down.

The Night Vision Scope Brands We Carry

At Optics4Birding, we are proud to offer a variety of night vision scopes for sale from some of the biggest names in the optics
manufacturing industry. These scopes range in price from affordable consumer models to pro-grade units suitable for law enforcement
and military uses in addition to wildlife research or other nighttime needs. At our company, our staff uses these scopes to enjoy
the outdoors, giving them the ability to help recommend the right night vision optic for our customers’ specific needs. We carry
night scope brands like:

In existence since World War II, night vision equipment falls into two major types: “starlight” scopes that amplify available light,
such as from the moon and stars or infrared light sources, usually built into the scope, to illuminate targets, and thermal imaging
scopes that detect heat and can distinguish a difference of as little as 1°F.

Night vision devices come in several different forms. The most basic is the monocular – a single set of lenses with a single image
intensifier tube. They can be either 1x or have higher magnifications. Goggles are either one 1x monocular with dual eyepieces or
two 1x monoculars ganged together for stereoscopic vision. Binoculars are usually goggles with magnifications larger than 1x. Finally,
there is the bi-ocular – a single objective lens and image intensifier tube and a viewing device that delivers images to both eyes.
Bi-oculars usually have larger magnification. Their purpose is to let both eyes view without the cost of two intensifier tubes.

Thermal imaging night vision devices are also useable in the daylight. They don’t have image intensifier tubes that will burn out in
bright light. Instead they detect very low frequency heat waves and display them in varying colors to indicate temperature levels. As
such, they can be used by fire fighters or law enforcement to locate people inside a building or by wildlife observers to locate
animals at night. Thermal imagers often have selectable color palettes, digital zoom capability, and recording capability. The image
in the viewfinder is an electronic image using an LCD display. Better units have larger displays and faster refresh rates. Because of
the cost, most thermal units are monoculars rather than binoculars or goggles.
